In short:
This suitcase is great value for money, especially considering its quality and functionality compared to other suitcases (not just of its kind). It is spacious, practical, with sturdy handles, and overall it seems like it will withstand the airport's tyranny without any problems. It is definitely preferable to plastic suitcases, as fabric suitcases have the flexibility to expand (the capacity is not limited to the dimensions) and they don't break.
-Dimensions: 70x35x27
-Weight: 3.9kg
In detail:
EXTERNAL:
- It consists of 2 external compartments. One is slim and extends almost the entire height. The other one is smaller but has room for thickness, and inside it there is a zippered compartment, pen slots, a passport holder(?), and a card holder(?).
- It includes 3 handles. 2 fabric handles (top and side) which are sewn together but also have additional buttons for reinforcement. A plastic handle is located at the bottom between the wheels for easy pulling, for example from a shelf.
[Note: for some reason, the top handle is located on the outside, misaligned, making it uncomfortable to lift from there]
- 2 built-in non-rotating wheels. Personally, I prefer built-in wheels over protruding ones as they don't add extra height and are more resistant to impacts.
- There are straps on the sides to limit volume and prevent opening in case the zipper gets damaged.
- At the back, the suitcase has sliders to prevent the suitcase from getting injured when placed upside down.
- The main zipper is sturdy and includes rings for a padlock.
- The telescopic handle has two preset positions (maximum and intermediate). It is not particularly tall (the maximum reaches the elbow), but I believe it doesn't need to be any taller. The shorter it is, the smaller the torque, which means less effort.
INTERNAL:
When opening the suitcase, unlike most fabric suitcases where it is a single space, this one opens in two parts like plastic suitcases. This means easy access to the contents without having to remove the top to reach the bottom. This way, their original position is maintained and continuous repositioning is not required.
-The large compartment is on the inside (right in the photo) and includes elastic bands to keep the clothes in place (It can fit about 6 sweatshirts, 6 t-shirts, and plenty of underwear/socks, which fit perfectly at the bottom).
-The exterior (left) is shallower, but it includes a fabric cover with a zipper that functions as a divider. It helps with organization and also prevents the usual mess that comes with moving the suitcase (It can fit about 9 pants).
[Note: the zipper of the divider does not extend to the edge of the interior. When fully open, there is a "lip" around it. This can be a problem if you want to carry something bulky. I doubt it will be a problem for anyone, I just mention it as an observation]
Edit: The maximum weight I managed to load it with was 24 kg of clothes using a vacuum bag. In regular use, it can fit clothes for 1-2 weeks (obviously depending on usage and the type of clothes). It is not a huge suitcase, but it is easy to carry.
It is a well-known brand, the fabric seems durable, the compartments are practical, and the color is discreet and nice... I believe it is more feature-rich than much more expensive suitcases and overall I have been very satisfied with its usefulness. I highly recommend it without hesitation!
